Lex F/F problems

[tim00]

a Lex fridge/freezer model no. T - N176.
There doesn't appear to be a thermostat on the app.
Also, the tray at the rear of the fridge compartment keeps filling with water that then overflows and creates icing.
Any solutions

check the drain is not blocked

Kevin, thanks for the reply but where do i start to look - do i empty the tray and probe for a blocked outlet? I now notice water appearing at the left front of the app. on the floor.

1 dont call me kevin it's not sunday

usually there is a drain tube from the tray which drains the water into another tray on top of the compressor to evaporate it

kev, the stat turned out to be a plastic slot screw and the problem was overheating/dirty condenser and a frozen drip tube. Thanks again.
